WMH Segmentation Challenge

Activity: Participating in or organising an eventParticipation in workshop, seminar, courseAcademic

Description

The purpose of this challenge is to directly compare methods for the automatic segmentation of White Matter Hyperintensities (WMH) of presumed vascular origin.

To participate in the challenge, interested teams can register on this website. After registration, training data can be downloaded. This data consists of 60 sets of brain MR images (T1 and FLAIR) with manual annotations of WMH (binary masks) from three different institutes / scanners. Manual annotations have been made by experts in WMH scoring.

Participants can train their methods on the available data and submit the resulting method for evaluation by the organizers. A brief description (1-2 pages) of the method should be included. Test data will not be released, but consists of 110 sets of brain MR images from five different scanners (of which three are also in the training data).
